/// Courting couple strolls here all alone,
yet they don’t need a strict chaperone.
Given all that they wear,
they can’t have an affair;
in those outfits there’s no way to bone.
/// Should they plan in the park to undress,
piles of clothes on the ground make a mess.
And to get re-attired,
servants would be required.
There’d be not enough time to transgress.
/// As they walk, his hand clutches his sword,
although bloodshed’s a thing she abhorred.
If someone he deplored
should, by chance, wander toward
them, he’d send the fool to his reward.
